I have a right side manifold off a 460 form an 83 ambulance. Obvioulsly I have to weld up the EGR holes but will it fit otherwise in my 74?

Easier than welding it up, they have EGR block off plates that you can just bolt right on.

If you mean the pipes for the smog pump/AIR system, take the pipes and fittings out and put in pipe plugs

The EGR ports we will block off. My concern was the exit of the manifold. Ii appears to be oriented a little different. Just wondering if anyone had used one of these. Wanting to make sure it clears the transmission.

The transmission shouldn't be a problem, as it's going to be a C6 in either vehicle. Things that may not clear would be the heater/AC, firewall, frame.
